Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole Recipe
- Total Time: 30 minutes
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large rotisserie chicken (meat removed, and shredded)
- 1/2lb deli-style black forest ham (chopped)
- ½lb sliced Swiss cheese
Sauce- - 4 tablespoons butter
- 4 tablespoons flour
- 3 cups of milk
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
Topping- - 4 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 ½ cups seasoned breadcrumbs
- ¼ cup parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9×13 inch casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray. Evenly spread the shredded chicken into the bottom of the casserole dish. Top evenly with the ham and then layer the Swiss cheese on top of the ham.
- Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook while whisking for 2 minutes. Slowly add the milk while whisking to keep clumps from forming. Increase the heat to high and cook while whisking constantly until the sauce thickens and boils.
- Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, smoked paprika, and black pepper. Mix well and pour over the top of the cheese in the casserole dish.
- In a small bowl mix together the melted butter, breadcrumbs, and parmesan cheese until the crumbs are moist from the butter. Sprinkle the mixture over the top of the ingredients in the baking dish. Place into the oven and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow the casserole to cool for 10 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken slightly.
